   Could you elaborate a little more on the error messages that you are     
   getting when using "make" to install the (which??) program?

   If you start from the live cd, try runnung "lspci -v" and search for the     
   part that starts with ".... Ethernet controller:"   
   In this section, you see the lines "Kernel driver in use" and "Kernel     
   modules".   
   Which driver/module is it?   
   Also, you could try googling the name of the NIC (the part behind     
   "Ethernet controller:") together with "firmware linux" or "firmware     
   ubuntu", which might tell you the name of the firmware package you need.   
      
   Regards,
